Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Datalogic Magellan 9550i compatible with my existing Magellan scanner setup?
Yes, the Magellan 9550i is designed as a drop-in replacement for earlier Magellan models (93/94/96/99 series) and matches existing bi-optic dimensions. It uses the same power supplies, cables, and scale displays as previous generations, ensuring seamless integration into your current retail checkout infrastructure without requiring hardware modifications.
What barcode formats can the Magellan 9550i read?
The Magellan 9550i decodes all standard 1D linear barcodes including GS1 DataBar, stacked codes like PDF417 and GS1 DataBar Expanded/Stacked, and 2D codes including Aztec, Data Matrix, QR Code, and Micro QR Code. It also features GS1 Digital Link readiness for modern digital workflow support.
How much faster is the Magellan 9550i compared to previous Magellan scanners?
The Magellan 9550i delivers 45% faster scanning performance than previous-generation Magellan bi-optic scanners for both 1D and 2D barcodes. This enhanced speed improves checkout throughput while maintaining the reliable, seamless read coverage across five sides plus optional Customer Service Scanner functionality.
What are the power consumption specifications for the Magellan 9550i?
The Magellan 9550i operates at only 2.6W nominal power consumption during scanning and 1.7W during idle mode, making it one of the most energy-efficient bi-optic scanners available. This low power footprint reduces operational energy costs while maintaining high-performance 1D and 2D scanning capabilities.
Does the Magellan 9550i support EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) integration?
Yes, the Magellan 9550i includes integrated EAS support with Checkpoint/Nedap EAS antenna integration and Sensormatic deactivation capabilities. This enables loss prevention workflows directly at the checkout counter without requiring separate hardware installations.
What optional features are available for the Magellan 9550i?
The Magellan 9550i offers an optional in-bonnet USB color camera (1 MP, 1280 x 1280 px) that enables AI-ready imaging workflows such as produce recognition and loss prevention. Additionally, an optional Customer Service Scanner (CSS) with omni-mount capability reads barcodes from mobile phones, loyalty cards, and coupons to enhance customer self-service and cashier efficiency.
